Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy In this chapter: we consider systems of particles for which the energy can be changed by the work done by external forces( 系统外的力 ) and nonconservative forces. Law of conservation of mechanical energy: “In a system in which only conservative forces do work, the total mechanical energy remains constant”

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy 13-1 Work done on a system by external forces Positive external work done by the environment on the system carries energy into the system, thereby increasing its total energy; vice versa. The external work represents a transfer of energy between the system and the environment. (13-1)

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy Let us consider a block of mass m attached to a vertical spring near the Earth’s surface. 1. system=block. Here the spring force and gravity are external forces; there are no internal forces within the system and thus no potential energy. Using Eq(13-1), Earth Fig 13-2 An example

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy 2. System=block + spring. The spring is within the system. 3. System=block + Earth. Here gravity is an internal Force. 4. System=block + spring + Earth. The spring force and gravity are both internal to the system, so

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy 13-2 Internal energy ( 内能 ) in a system of particles 1.Consider an ice skater. She starts at rest and then extend her arm to push herself away from the railing at the edge of a skating rink （溜冰场）. ice railin g Use work-energy relationship to analyze: The system chosen only include the skater Mg N F

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy W F =0; W N+MG =0; W ext =0 ??? in disagreement with our observation that she accelerates away from the railing. Where does the skater’s kinetic energy come from?

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy For a system of particles, it can store one kind of energy called “internal energy”. The problem comes from: The skater can not be regarded as a mass point, but a system of particles. It is the internal energy that becomes the skater’s kinetic energy. (13-2)

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy 2. What’s the nature of “internal energy”? Sum of the kinetic energy associated with random motions of the atoms and the potential energy associated with the forces between the atoms.

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy Sample problem13-1 A baseball of mass m=0.143kg falls from h=443m with, and its. Find the change in the internal energy of the ball and the surrounding air. Solution: system = ball + air + Earth.

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy *13-3 Frictional work 1. Consider a block sliding across a horizontal table and eventually coming to rest due to the frictional force. For the system = block + table, no external force does any work on the system. Applying Eq(13-2) (13-4) As the decreases, there is a corresponding increase in internal energy of the system. f v

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy 2. If the block is pulled by a string and moves with constant velocity. f=T f v T For the system = block + table W T is responsible for increasing the internal energy (temperature) of the block and table.

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy For the system = block (f=T) If W f =-fs,. It is in disagreement with observation. So, it must be: is correct only if the object can be treated as a particle( 不考虑内部结构时 ).

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy Sample problem 13-2 A 4.5 kg block is thrust up a incline with an initial speed v of 5.0m/s. It is found to travel a distance d=1.5 m up the plane as its speed gradually decreases to zero. How much internal energy does the system of block + plane + Earth gain in this process due to friction? Solution: System = block + plane + Earth, ignore the kinetic energy changes of the Earth.

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy 13-4 Conservative of energy in a system of particles We illustrate these principles by considering block-spring combination shown in Fig the spring is initially compressed and then released. (a) (b) (c) Fig 13-4 f (13-2)

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy (1) system = block. (13- 8) because the spring is not part of the system. (2) System = block + spring (13-9) (3) System = block + spring + table (13-10) The frictional force is a nonconservative dissipative force. The loss in mechanical energy being compensated by an equivalent gain in the internal energy.

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy In Fig 13-5, even though the railing exerts a force on the skater, it does no work Equation of CM energy From Eq(7-16), ( ), we suppose the center of mass moves through a small displacement. Multiplying on both sides by this, we obtain But we can define a ‘pseudo-work’ for. ice

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy If is constant, and, we have: Then (13-12) Integrating Eq(13-12) (13-15) (13-13) Or(13-14) 质心能量方程

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy a). Eq(13-14) and (13-15) resemble the work- energy theorem. The quantities on the left of these equations look like work, but they are not work, because and do not represent the displacement of the point of application of the external force. b). Eq(13-14) and (13-15) are not expressions of conservation of energy, translational kinetic energy is the only kind of energy that appears in these expressions. c). However, Eq(13-14) or (13-15) can give complementary information to that of Eq(13-2). (13-2) 能量守恒方程

(a) What is the speed as she breaks away from the railing? (b) What is the during this process? (there is no friction)

Ch.13 Energy III: Conservation of energy Solution: (a) We take the skater as our system. From (13- 15), for CM (b) From (13-2), for CM
